Fifteen E%migrants Among

GARDNER, Ill, Aug. 24.-The develop
ments in the Babcock- Dodge mystery
show, what promised at one time to be q
very sensational affair has dwindled into
avery ordinary case. Attorney s. G.
Slough, of Sarah Dodge's council said:
.Ws shall offer bonds with the bank or
G J. Lentz and Mrs. Dodge as sureties.
The grand jury meets September is and
az the date So near at had PROBABLY no
objections will be made to the PROPOSE
ton
The general opinion here liz that Sarah
Dodge cannot be convicted of the muir
der Of Babcock in case she is indicted by
the grand jury and it is quite probable II
an Indictment is returned it will ba only
for m~anslaughter.
Relatives of Col. Babcock in Chicago
incline to the belief that the shooting
was purely accidental and If such is the
case 1T would be cruel to prosecute Miss
Dodge.

CHICAGO, Aug. 24-The stovemolders
are making preparations for. a repetition
of the protracted strike of a few months
ago. The extensive n complicated
strike started In the St Louis shops of
Bridge, Beach g. Co. and spread ali over
the United States. The molders, unions
boycotted the Bridge s. Beach patterns
and the manufacturers formed a strong
defensive association, and entered into a
bitter struggle with the union. The
prime cause CT the strike was q demand
on the part of the St. Louis molders for
an advance in wages Of 10 per cent. The
strike resulted Ia a draw battle, both
sides making concessions. The st. Louis
nelders Failed, h5wa7er, to get any ad-
vance In wages. The Chicago moiders
returned to work with an openly-aycwed
intention of demanding higher wsges
when the season would warrant their
taking such q step.
A member OF Ironmolders' Union No.
20 explained the situation as follows.
ssThe wages paid ironmoiders are gensr-
ally cotAceded by manufacturers to be en-
tremely low. The leading stove men
81 RlSoiioSo utn1O anu aX6lu TO increase
the wages, but have thus far failed to do
so. The St. Louis men. became tired Of
waiting and struck. 1t was a foolish
mope7on their part. They should have
waited until the busy season eommenced.
The Ironmolders' Union of North Amer
tca Endorsed the strike, and in the two
months following the output OF stoves
was materially checked. The busy saa-
son Is now here and we are going to take
advantage Of II. We shall make a formal
demand for G5e Of 10 per cent?, and
strike il it is ..ot granted. The bosses
cannot fall back upon an 0versupply OF
stoves, for there is none. The trade is
calling for stoves, and they are not IN the
houses. The demand will be a general
one. The manufacturers are as thor
opgly organized ms we are, and their de-
fense- association can avert a strike by
fulfilling the promises made a short time
ago.
The local stovsmolders number about
1,200, and are employed by Cribben &
sexton, Collins q Surgie, and the CHI
cago Stove Works.
